I hear people saying that 50 is the new thirty but honestly I am really excited about 50 being just what it is, a time where I am more ME every damn day. This is ME.

Perhaps the world should be scared but I am increasingly more ok with both the amazing parts of me and my foibles as well.  Not that there are not things that I am working on.. hell I am always working on how I approach life and people and the care we give this world but what I have dumped is a great deal of my “give a fuck” about HOW people think I lead my life.  Very freeing indeed!

So to celebrate this milestone of life it felt only right to give some gifts, both from myself and from friends to make this a real kick-ass party!

Today is day 1 of the 10 day countdown to my birthday on January 23rd. All during the 10 days I will be doing fun giveaways each day over on the BAQS Facebook page leading up to the big mamma giveaway here on the blog- on this post for ………<drum roll please>…..

 

TWO –  Innov-is NQ900PRW By brother


 

This machine is going to rock your socks ( and anything else that needs a little thrill!). I spent time seriously talking with the amazing people Chattanooga’s Sewing Machine Shop  to find just the right machine that would not be too much for a new quilter but would also be a great machine for a more experienced quilter either at home or on the go to retreats and classes.  The  extended table (not seen here) and knee lift being just 2 of the reasons that I think this machine is going to make TWO people very happy!! This machine is no light-weight and with a retail price of over $2,000 each you can bet I am going to be insuring the hell out of them as I send them to our winners!  Want to know more about the machine… click here

So if you read in-between the lines there, while many times I partner with wonderful companies to bring you prizes this time it is my hard earned cash that paid for these machines to give away to you for my birthday celebration. There are lots of reasons for this but by far I want to you to know how vested I am in making BAQS the world leader in progressive sewing and quilting movements. Being a vocal advocate for a part of the quilt world that often gets the short shrift is important to me. Quilting and sewing are for everyone and I am here to prove that every day!

So to each of us who has been told that you are “too much”, “too loud”, “too big”, “too Small”,”too gay”, “too straight”, whatever…. not enough in some way –  know that is total and abject bullshit and you have a place here at BadAss Quilters Society…hell, even if you don’t quilt.

If you support my mission and want to help make a difference please make sure to share this post and our daily live count down videos on Facebook to spread the word!

So join me for 10 days of fun!  Make sure to leave a comment here for your chance to win a machine but don’t miss our daily Facebook live chats where I will be giving away daily prizes provided by some of my friends such as….

POORHOUSE  QUILT DESIGNS

HUNTERS DESIGN STUDIO

PURPLE PINEAPPLE STUDIO
